Hi All....Could anyone tell me how I get rid of the little black lava

are swimming in the water butts which then seem to turn into some sort

My Grandad used to put a couple of goldfish from the pool in there, and
swap them about every week.

That assumes that the OP has a pond, but if he doesn't then the oil is much
more positive, except that killing these lava will offend some posters!(:-)
